Benefits of technology

The patent describes the use of certain compounds in the preparation of medications to treat diabetes and related conditions. These compounds have a long half-life in the body and can be administered once a day, which is a significant improvement over current treatments which require multiple daily injections. The compounds can also help decrease food intake, prevent β-cell apoptosis, increase β-cell function, and restore β-cell sensitivity to glucose. Overall, this patent presents a new tool for improving the treatment of diabetes and related disorders.

Problems solved by technology

Despite the advance in the treatment of diabetes, hypoglycemic episodes are often the limiting factor in achieving optimal blood sugar control.
However, the biologic half-life of native GLP-1 molecules which are affected by the activity of dipeptidyl-peptidase IV (DPP IV) is quite short.

example 1

I. Synthesis of Intermediates (Dimer)

[0029]The structure of Dimer is shown below:

[0030]It can be synthesized in the following method:

1. Preparation of Compound 01.HCl

[0031]80 mL of thionyl chloride was added dropwise to 250 mL of methanol at −10° C. within 2 hours. After the mixture was warmed to the room temperature and stirred for 1 hour, 40 g of L-alanine was added and stirred overnight. The reaction mixture was heated to reflux for 4 hours, cooled to the room temperature and concentrated to give 80 g of crude compound 01.HCl.

2. Preparation of Compound 02

[0032]113 g of benzyl bromide was added to the mixture of 40 g of compound 01.HCl in 350 mL of DMF. 150 g of anhydrous potassium carbonate was added to the above mixture, and stirring was continued for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was heated to 50° C. and stirred for 2 hours, cooled to the room temperature and extracted with 400 mL of ethyl acetate and 1200 mL of water. The organic layer was washed with 150 mL of 6N HCl, the aqu...

example 2

[0069]The synthesis of the main peptide chain of Formula II was conducted by the use of Rink Amide Resin instead of Fmoc-Gly-Wang Resin. The other conditions were the same as described in Example 1.

[0070]Unless otherwise specified, the temperature referred to in Example 1 and Example 2 was the room temperature. Reagents A, B and C were 80% phenol in ethanol solution, redistilled pyridine, and a ninhydrin / ethanol solution (5 g in 100 mL).

example 3

Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT)

[0071]1. Groups

[0072]90 ICR (Institute of Cancer Research) mice, all male, were divided into three batches by body weight, with each batch having 30 mice. After fasting and overnight, each batch was divided into two groups based on the blood sugar level: the Vehicle group and the group receiving the compound of Example 1 (“Compound group”). The Vehicle group was treated with saline only, and the Compound group was treated with Compound of Example 1 dissolved in saline.

[0073]2. Experiments

[0074]Batch 1:

[0075]The mice were divided into two groups based on their blood sugar level after fasting overnight. On Day 1, they were administered with saline or the Compound in saline (0.3 mg / kg) by subcutaneous injection. 2 hours after the administration, the mice were gavaged with a dose of glucose (2 g / kg) and their blood samples were taken from the tip of the tail 30 minutes and 60 minutes after the glucose administration. Their blood glucose levels were meas...

Abstract

Provided is a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) analogue shown as the following formula, wherein X is selected from glycine and glycinamide. The GLP-1 analogue has a non-proteogenic amino acid residue in position 8 relative to the sequence GLP-1, and is acylated with a moiety comprising two acidic groups to the lysine residue in position 26. The GLP-1 analogue is resistant to dipeptidyl peptidase IV so as to have an extended half-life in vivo. Also provided is a use of the GLP-1 analogue in conquering blood sugar.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to glucagon-like peptide-1 analogues and use thereof.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Diabetes has become the third ranked non-infectious disease after the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and tumors. WHO predicts that by year 2030, the population of diabetes patients worldwide will be more than 360 million, more than 90% of which are with type II diabetes. Type II diabetes refers to non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus or adult-onset diabetes, and is becoming more common. Type II diabetes is increasing at an alarming rate. Despite the advance in the treatment of diabetes, hypoglycemic episodes are often the limiting factor in achieving optimal blood sugar control. To address the limitation of current diabetes treatment, much progress has been made in the research of glucagon-like peptide-1 (Glucagon-like peptide-1, referred to as GLP-1). GLP-1 as gut hormone is secreted by intestinal L cells. It is a potent ant...
